The smart ones took whatever valuables they had and fled the country.

It will be interesting to see the reaction from the Obama White House.

You have got to be kidding me. Directive 10-289 was supposed to be fiction. You might as well pass a law that the passengers can't leave and the driver has to keep driving in a car that's run out of fuel.

You know, FR ought to have a Book Club about Atlas Shrugged so we could all see what road the socialist fools are really about to point us down. We could even make a book out of it.

Naw. Never happen.

If I had the wherewithal, I’d be dropping copies of Atlas Shrugged from airplanes.
Yeah, it’s a big book to drop on them...but stupid should hurt!

Maduro will wind up in jail, or worse.

I wonder what they are saying about this on leftist sites? Have they seen the light at all, or are crickets chirping?

Readers of Solzhenitsyn will recognize the formula. Pity Venezuela has no frozen wilderness to ship a few million citizens.

So if the owners don’t like it, they can leave? If they try to leave, they should be imprisoned?

For those who can read Spanish, some excellent commentaries have been written by Gustavo Coronel. IIRC he wrote for petroleumworld.com and they had translations, but now the only place I can find him is his blog in Spanish:
http://lasarmasdecoronel.blogspot.com/

He was firmly anti-Chavez from the start. I think he lives in Florida now. He was in the oil business years back and saw what was coming. Took Chavez at his word and logically foresaw the consequences.

A Salvador Allende moment from the past.

This follows countries founded with Catholicism as its original religion.

No Protestant ethic like the US, Canada, and Australia.

An inherent problem of socialism is the lack of incentives for people to be productive. Mr. Maduro is addressing the issue in the traditional manner.
